I'm not able to explain why this bill did not pass, so I've messaged Wouter Lievens (the game owner/developer).

I'm also puzzled that the bill has been "defeated", although the voting deadline is February 4145, and it is now only October 4144. The bill should not be passed or defeated until the voting deadline, since it has legislative proposals attached.

Also, the bill's defeat is not mentioned in Dundorf's in-game newspaper, which seems odd.
